Windows looks more like Ubuntu every day

I can't give an opinion on Administrating Windows vs Ubuntu, never done it.

The only bad experience's I have had with Windows is when I
am inconvenienced by having to Phone in an explanation that my pc has been
upgraded and I am moving it to my new pc.
Yes I am only installing it to ONE computer, Sighhh!

And to be fair I only started to really dislike Microsoft when I started to
use Ubuntu.

Windows: Lets see, restart,restart,restart,restart,restart,restart, Grrr oh
wait theres more?? update,restart, update,restart, update,update,update etc.
Two Days Later, I think I'm done, nope, time to tweak security etc, mind you
I did become proficient in a hurry.

And NOW for Linux: Most Distros install in under 30 min, update & install
Apps another 30 min.

I do Not like Dictators, not looking good for Microsoft.
I do like Microsoft Office but not at the price they want.

Desktop stability you may be right but do not leave your windows PC on too
long, not again! Restart. lol.

I think I may be "a little biased in favour of Linux Ubuntu"
Logic in my case.

Patient: Doctor!, Doctor!, it hurts when I do this! [(sticks finger in eye)
Microsoft]
Doctor: Then don't do it! [Linux]

My 2 cents

Chris.
